His shirt parted, giving her a glimpse of broad, strong pectoral muscles and washboard abs that made her mouth run dry. He was excessively good to look at, what one of her friends would term 'man candy. The pool of warmth at her pelvis spread. He turned her over, ran down the zip, and gently spread the edges back, kissing one slim white freckled shoulder and then the other and tugging her back against him.

'Do you always go this slow?'

No, he didn't, and, considering that he was already hugely aroused, Edward had no idea why he was determined to be the perfect lover for her. 'Depends on my mood... I want to savor you...'

He slid the sleeves down her arms and paused to appreciate the full globes filling the cups of her bra before he succumbed to temptation. With a soft little sound of impatience, he snapped lose the catch on the bra and raised his hands to cradle her super boobs, massaging the creamy flesh, pressing her flat to explore them with his mouth, and lingering over her straining rosy tits

'You have amazing tits,' Edward muttered thickly as he dallied there, employing both his tongue and the glancing edge of his teeth to tease the straining buds.

Bella was rather more amazed at the effect he was having on her ignorant body. A hungry ache stirred at her heart of her. All of a sudden catching her breath was a challenge and she ran her fingers through his luxuriant black hair, surprised by how soft it was and how right it felt to touch him. She had thought she might have to steel herself to respond to him, genuinely hadn't expected to be quite so caught up in the process as she was, and had even believed that throughout the process some part of her quick and clever brain would be standing back using and judging. Instead, as he lifted her to find her mouth again Bella was engaging in some exploration of her own, hands sliding below the open shirt to trace his wonderfully honed muscular torso, skimming over the flat male abs and the etching of crisp dark hair sprinkled there before sliding down to stroke the flexing muscles of his taut stomach.

'Don't...not this first time,' Edward urged, pulling back from her to slide off the bed. 'I'm too close to the edge.'

Bella blinked, bemused, having assumed he would be as eager to be touched as she was. And, 'not this first time? Was that simply his prodigious self-assurance doing the talking for him? Her body all aquiver about even the thought of a single experience and the unlikelihood of her wanting a second, Bella watched him strip off his clothing with something less than the laid-back cool she had come to expect from him.

Everything came off at once, ensuring that she had little time to be curious about what her first aroused male looked like. He was larger than she had assumed he would be, but that was only a point of academic interest, she urged herself nervously, surveying the prodding length and breadth of his bold shaft. She knew she would stretch and she envisaged neither pain nor anything else that might reveal her inexperience. After all, she had gone horse riding from an early age and believed any physical barrier would be long gone. With the same focused intellectual interest, Bella wondered why she literally felt overheated when she looked at Edward, her body hot, her breath catching in her throat as if she lacked oxygen.

'You're very quiet,' Edward remarked, coming back down to her, dropping several foil-wrapped contraceptives on the bedside cabinet, soothing Bella's instinctive terror of what had happened to her mother also happening to her.

For a split second, she was almost tempted to tell him the truth about herself but innate reserve learned growing up in a household where she had never belonged, kept her silent.

'I'm used to women who chatter,' Edward admitted with a slanting grin that was irresistible.

'I'm quite,' Bella admitted, sliding for purchase on the slippery surface of the bedspread and flipping it back to scramble beneath the sheets, still clad in her, which she whisked off under cover.

'Someone so beautiful could never be shy,' Edward assumed, sliding in beside her in one lithe movement to reach for her. 'But you are a cheat... I wanted to see you...all of you.'
